He was betrayed at the beginning, from a cake seller to a wealthy person

The house was almost built, and the group continued to move forward the next day.

Summer does have more good things than winter. There are endless fruits on the trees. Although some are not ripe yet, the green and slightly sour taste is unique. Especially since they have been hunting and eating meat every day these days, they really want to eat something sour.

After walking for about three days, everyone stopped to build houses. Lu Yan felt that the distance between the two bases was the best, not too far or too close. It was unrealistic to find a house after walking two steps, and it was not suitable to walk for several days without finding a place. Three days was a distance that was not too difficult for people to endure.

As everyone was still chopping trees to build houses, Lu Yan took He Wenjing out to look for things. After walking for so many days, Lu Yan had become accustomed to snakes of all colors, and they could not escape the fate of being killed by He Wenjing's knife anyway.

Snakes are not the only animals that become active in the summer. Lu Yan and her companions once encountered a wild boar. This was the second time that Lu Yan and He Wenjing had encountered a wild boar. The veterans were no longer surprised and they quickly climbed up the tree without saying a word.

This time the situation was different from the last time, it was not just one wild boar, but a group of them. One wild boar could be shot and killed for meat, but with a group of wild boars, no one dared to act rashly.

I watched helplessly as they rushed past in groups without stopping and smashed the half-built house into pieces.

This time the wild boars came and left quickly, disappearing without a trace in a short while. They probably just passed by them.

Several people came down from the tree. Lu Yan stood in the middle of the broken wood, stroking her chin and thinking, did they build the house on the route that wild boars must take? Will they take this route again in the future?

Lu Yan expressed her concerns, and after discussing for a while, they decided not to build the house here. They walked forward for a day before deciding on another location.

After building three houses like this, Lu Yan calculated that the distance was almost to the end, so she stopped and turned back.

The journey back took almost ten days, and we were even followed by a wolf once.

Two lone wolves followed the group from a distance, staring at Ma Hu in the team. They seemed to be afraid of their large numbers and did not dare to get close, but just followed silently.

Lu Yan was a little frightened when she saw them. All the literary works about wolves she had read in modern times said that these animals were very cunning, and she really couldn't help but take them seriously.

"Think of a way to get rid of them." Lu Yan said, "It's not a good idea to keep worrying like this."

Liu Xiaowu was eager to try: "Kill him?"

Pang Zhongqing stopped him: "Don't add to the trouble."

Old Yu nodded: "It will be troublesome if we attract wolves."

He Wenjing listened and turned away. She picked up two pheasants from the pile of prey she had shot, broke their necks, and threw them at the two wolves from a distance.

The two wolves each grabbed a chicken and finally stopped following, turned around and ran away quickly.

Lu Yan heaved a sigh of relief, finally solving another problem. Lu Yan collected a lot of seeds as she walked. Pang Zhongqing and Liu Xiaowu hunted while walking, and ate most of them on the road, leaving a pile of fur and a large bag of pheasant feathers. Xiao Yu said that he was going back to make a feather duster, and insisted that he take it with him.

They walked and collected things, and finally they got out of the forest. Lu Yan was getting bored in the forest, seeing the same scenery every day, which was a little fresh at first, but then she got tired of it and lost interest. This time she finally got out, she immediately urged her horse to run towards Liaoyang County.

In the summer forest, there was food and drink, meat, vegetables, and fruits. There was nothing edible on the ground, in the water, or on the trees. Lu Yan did not treat her stomach badly at all. The most annoying thing was that it was difficult to take a bath.

The grown men could jump into the water anytime and anywhere, and that was considered a bath. If Lu Yan wanted to take a bath, she had to wait until they were all asleep at night, and asked He Wenjing to keep watch for her. The temperature difference between day and night in Liaozhou was huge, and it was very cold at night. Lu Yan didn't dare to go into the water directly. She brought the water back to boil, but there was no big bucket, so she only had a basin to make do.

He Wenjing used to run around in the mountains, and it was common for her to not take a bath for three to five days, and it was not uncommon for her to take a bath once every ten days or half a month. But Lu Yan couldn't do that. She could only accept not washing her hair and taking a bath for three days at most, and she couldn't stand it any longer, so she was very troubled by this matter.

It's not like she hadn't followed them into the woods before, but the time was shorter than this time. Besides, Lu Sheng and He Yue had arranged everything for her so she didn't have to worry about anything. This time she had to rely on herself, and she realized how troublesome it was.

Now that she was finally back, Lu Yan didn't care about anything else. She rode her horse straight to the yamen, boiled a large bucket of water, and took a good bath.

Lu Yan changed into a clean and cool summer shirt, feeling refreshed. She strolled to the front and learned that Lu Sheng was not in the government office, but had gone out to supervise the construction. Since the construction of the public toilet began, he had been busy every day, leaving early and returning late.

It is said that the one in the east of the city has been initially completed, and Lu Sheng is now in the west of the city. Lu Yan decided to go and see his progress. It has been such a long time since we last met, so I should say hello to him when I come back.

Lu Yan was thinking about the blueprint that Lu Sheng had shown her at the time, and she roughly knew where it was, so she rode her horse there.

The place was really easy to find. Liaoyang County is still sparsely populated, and there are only a few people in the entire west of the city. A group of them built an area with wood and bricks, and it can be seen at a glance.

Lu Yan rode forward and first saw Nie Li and Zhou Xuan standing outside. Nie Li saw Lu Yan coming and greeted her in surprise: "Miss Lu is back!"

Lu Yan got off the horse and smiled at Nie Li: "I'm back, where's Lu Sheng?"

"Lord Lu is down there." Nie Li pointed to the large pit in the middle. It was a septic tank built specifically for storage, and it was still in the form of a large pit. Nie Li shouted at it, "Lord Lu! Miss Lu is back!"

When Lu Sheng heard the shout, he immediately dropped what he was holding and rushed up in two steps, stepping on a few large rocks.

He seldom wore official uniform, and when he went out to do work he always wore casual clothes that were convenient for working. Even though the sleeves were narrow enough, they were still in the way, so he simply rolled them up to his forearms and tucked the hem of his clothes into his belt. Two strands of hair stuck out from his hair crown. There were several stains of dirt on his fair face, but his eyes were surprisingly bright.

Lu Sheng ran over excitedly: "You're back!"

He looked at Lu Yan, who was clean and tidy, with her hair still a little damp, and knew that Lu Yan should have just washed and cleaned up. He stopped when he was two steps away from Lu Yan, and did not touch Lu Yan: "I'm too dirty now, I'd better stay away from you."

Lu Yan looked at Lu Sheng's miserable appearance, and her heart beat violently in her chest.

Lu Yan suddenly covered her heart and looked at Lu Sheng in surprise.

Lu Sheng watched Lu Yan's movements and looked at her in confusion. His round eyes reminded Lu Yan of Yin Zi's clear eyes.

Then her heart skipped a beat.
